2007 version of "Your Family Planning Program" and the training shell that is used with "Your Family Planning". This was a review of the CAM for programs in Region 10 that was coordinated by DSI. In this folder is a program file, "ConferencePlayerSetup" that must be run to place the player on your computer. Once this has been done, you can run the individual sessions that will walk you through completion of the CAM. The sessions are:

Session 1: Introduction/Overview of the Series

Session 2: Allocation Process & Allocation of Staff

Session 3: Allocation of Other and Donated Expenses

Session 4: Square Footage and Utilization data for form 1

Session 5: Utilization and Cost data for Form 2 - Lab

Session 6: Cost of Supplies and Utilization for Form 3 - Pharmacy

Session 7: Wrap-Up/Final questions and discussion

This should serve as a good review.

Female Sexual Dysfunction Demystified
  Despite the commonness of female sexual dysfunction, a majority of women do not feel comfortable discussing the issues of sexual difficulty and painful intercourse with their health care provider. This makes it imperative that providers take a more active role in raising the issue, diagnosing the underlying cause, and treating the problem.

Coercion and the Adolescent Relationship
  “Many women are coerced into having unwanted sexual intercourse by being violently raped. Even more women are coerced into having unwanted sexual intercourse in numerous more subtle ways…We focus on nonviolent sexual coercion, in the hope that labeling it as coercive may create a step toward change.”

Emergency Contraception (EC) Training Program for Pharmacists and Health Care Professionals
  EC (also known as the "morning-after pill" or Plan B) is a safe and effective way to prevent pregnancy after unprotected sex or birth control failure. It can be taken up to 5 days after sex, but is more effective the sooner it is taken. EC contains the same hormones as birth control pills and WILL NOT cause an abortion — EC is not RU-486 and will not interrupt an already established pregnancy.

- Earn 1 hour of CEs or CMEs
- Obtain useful and relevant information on EC to better serve your clients
- Satisfy California's requirement for pharmacists to provide EC services in your pharmacy
- Course can be completed on line - click here
Cost = $25

STD/HIV Client Education Materials for Linguistically Diverse Populations
  State Family Planning Administrators Project:
In 2002, State Family Planning Administrators (SFPA), did a needs assessment of all members to identify common areas of interest for assisting family planning (FP) programs in reaching out to culturally and ethnically diverse communities. The goal was to collect names of various pamphlets, fact sheets, etc. and create a central list of non-English sexually transmitted disease/infection (STD) patient resources. By no means does this list contain all of the non-English STD/HIV client resources that are available. It is an attempt to fill a void for those clinics that may have limited knowledge of the scope of resources available. Hopefully this list can be made accessible to large numbers of reproductive health professionals and STD/HIV programs that work with linguistically diverse populations
